Crete Hierarchy

The Crete Hierarchy is the overarching motif in which each character from Mabel corresponds to a character from the story of Theseus and the Minotaur (or perhaps, more accurately, Ariadne and Her Shitty Boyfriend and The Minotaur).

Canonical Tie-ins
Mabel Martin as The Labyrinth and The Minotaur.

Anna Limón as the Ball of Thread.

Aurora Silver as King Minos.

Theoretical Tie-ins
Sally Martin as Daedalus.

Lily Martin as Icarus.

Brandon as Theseus.

Ekaterina Roskova as Ariadne.

Theoretical Reasoning
These theories were written by Abbey, and any questions should be directed to them.

Sally: Created the labyrinth (Mabel), punished the Minotaur (Mabel), left Ariadne to use the thread (Anna) to wander through the maze.

Lily: Tried escaping the labyrinth (Mabel), and through her hubris died for it.

Brandon: Almost kills the Minotaur (Mabel), young and stupid and sent to die.

Ekaterina: Mabel's "sister" (both students of Aurora Silver / Minos) who gave the thread (Anna) to the cult (when she summoned God!Anna in episode 40).
